I mean, fire evaporates water and turns it into steam, so why isn't water weak to fire? It just makes NO sense. When I was a child, my first game was pokemon red, and I chose charmander as my starter. Then, when I was up to Cerulean city, I was expecting Misty to be DEMOLISHED by my fire-type moves. My charmeleon then got one-shotted, and I didn't know how, it said when I used a fire move on Starmie that it was not very effective, and I thought it was a glitch. WHY isn't water weak to FIREEE???
